Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Parvati came into a Texas shelter severely malnourished and fighting Parvo, but you’d never know it now. She’s bounced back with a whole lot of spirit and just the right touch of sass. Her will to survive is obvious in the way she plays, learns, and loves—this puppy is tough, smart, and full of personality. She’s naturally submissive and takes cues well from other dogs. She’s great with kids, other dogs, and even cats. She’s still learning not to guard her food, a habit from when meals weren’t guaranteed, but she’s improving every day as she learns that there will always be food now. Parvati is working on potty pad training and leash walking—she’s not perfect yet, but she’s picking it up quickly, especially with a harness. She barks like a normal puppy for attention or during play, and she’s eager to learn and please. This tiny pup has a big personality, and honestly, she’s earned it. She’s playful, affectionate, and a quick study. Parvati would thrive in any home that can offer her the structure, stimulation, and love every puppy deserves. Parvati is from Texas. They arrive in Minnesota on 6/28/2025 and will need to be picked up from the Ruff Start Rescue office in Princeton, MN between the hours of 9AM and 12pm. Please plan for their arrival accordingly as we cannot accommodate pickups outside of this time frame. Since they haven’t arrived yet, they are available exclusively through Ruff Start’s Foster to Adopt (FTA) Program. Click here to learn more about the FTA program. Once they get to Minnesota, they might require further veterinary care. Ruff Start’s veterinary suite is located in Princeton, MN, and, as the foster, you will be required to transport your dog to and from these vetting appointments. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract. To learn more about Ruff Start’s adoption process and the care our foster animals receive, please visit our How to Adopt page. *Rescue puppies are notorious for losing their birth certificates before entering our rescue. We cannot guarantee the breed or size they will be full grown.* If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
